Midnight On The Water

Chorus:

Play me a fiddle tune, sing me a song

Banish misfortune, my time is not long

Midnight on the water so steady and slow

Stay up till the morning, one more for the road

Midnight on the water, so steady and slow.

Let's have another drink and set em up Joe

I never thought much of that fancy dancing

With my two left feet and my rovin eye

But when the band plays so slowly in 3/4 time

I could dance with my darling until morning comes

Well, I've done all my dancing down in those barrooms

Dancing and drinking go hand in glove

So give a beer to the fiddler, play all the old tunes

So I can dance closer to the one that I love

Midnight on the water so steady and slow

Lets have another drink and set em up Joe
